(feat) persist meta in database #101

Closed d12frosted closed 3 years ago

Fixes #100

The approach is to hook into org-roam-db routine. It is not ideal and intrusive, but provides a quick means to achieve the goal without writing infrastructure for database management.

vulpea-note-meta is an associative list. Every key is a string and the value is a list of strings. Since semantics of each property are known only to the end user (e.g. it's a link to some other note and there can be a single value, etc.) we persist only string. In order to make it easier to access the data with respect of semantics we need some API similar to existing meta API, but working on assoc. This will be covered in the upcoming commit.
